Answer 1

I have PCOS which is being managed well with Glucophage. I recommend that you seek out a reputable Reproductive Endocrinologist to help you with medications and the other issues as part of this disorder. A great resource is www.soulcysters.com, a community for women with PCOS, up to 10% of women have PCOS...it is manageable.

i myself have many of these same issues and i sympathize.i am going next week for 2 mri s so i dont know yet what the dr. will decide,i also have to see a gynecologist the 4th of may.i started taking thyroid medication a month age but i havent lost weight i am going to begin exercising each day again at least 30 minutes a day i was for 45 minutes each day but got sick and then depressed so i quit again.its hard to stay motivated when you live in the north all the snow and ice and cold makes it difficult.i also quit smoking last may and the doctor said that was part of why i gained weight i said i quit a long time ago,he said it takes awhile to get rid of the nicottiene and thats why i gained more weight.i am hoping that its not ovarian cancer or anything like that.if you havent seen a specialist go now maybe they will have a better treatment plan good luck to you.
